       | Really exciting work! This reminds me a lot of Physarum (slime
       | mold) simulations popularized by media artists like Sage
       | Jensen[1]. The combination of explicitly defined particles along
       | with fields that those particles can interact with is proving to
       | be a fascinating technique!

       | I think this field of study has wild potential.

       | How do you get one of these to learn a function. And further:
       | learn to combine functions from individuals to accomplish a task?
